Trick Question
Apr 9, 2007


We clearly need a boombox and a cardboard mat for the beach party.

The best sports are bloodsports, so we should give these children a red cape and an angry bull.

Of course, the real cause of the death of the dinosaurs had to be covered up by the government, as they were killed by leaking nuclear waste.

Beach parties need giant beelike sunglasses. Show them that sport is an analogy for the fundamental universal conflict with a demonic cricket ball and an angelic cricket bat. Finally, the Dinosaurs were wiped out by apocalyptic ebola.

I think the video format works well Color Printer! It was neat to see your reaction to things, like the Racer for the car. Also interesting when you made not of the mechanic quirks, like the Starite Get animation retaining momentum. Looking forward to seeing more of this!

The only thing I would say about the videos is to cut the parts where you get the starrite and restart the level to make it a bit tighter. If that's not too much work.

Make it a muscle beach party with a weightlifting bench.

For those who were concerned: don't worry, the later episodes will have more editing. This was an admittedly sort of sloppy and spur-of-the-moment test run that actually went over pretty alright. I'll probably end up merging the level videos into one big one per update, too.

Well, they said to kick off the party, so let's get a football player to do the kick.

No better sport than hunting, right? So give one a musket and the other a deer costume for maximum fun!

Dinosaurs used to be the dominating species back then, but now humans are. Why? Hungry Cavemen ate them all, that's how we became the dominate species!

When you edit the second batch of videos, you might try replacing the soundtrack; the emulator slowdown is trashing the native one.

Yeah, I considered doing this anyway. (I'll also see if I can reduce slowdown) While the music in the game is pretty nice it can also get insanely repetitive, even though there's a bunch of tracks that play at random. I'll probably just jam in music from other games to fit the mood/theme of the current mission.

Also oh jeez I should not have pushed this to Easter Sunday, of all days. I'll start on it tonight but I probably won't be able to get it up until tomorrow morning night.

So this one's taking a little long (for a couple of reasons, one of them being I've been half-sick for a week), and I made an executive decision to update my other LP today because that one hadn't been updated in a while either. This one will probably be updated...later this week.

But here's some content. I dug this out of the old thread. It was a bonus video that went up on Halloween. Never mind the fact that it's on a totally different YouTube account, I'm not sure why I made a different one back then.

:spooky:Halloween Monster Tournament:spooky:

Sorry there's no subtitles, I'd download the video and add some but downloading it from Youtube and re-encoding it probably would not work very well. Enjoy.

EDIT: Locking this thread until I finally stop coughing* and get the next update out to stop submissions in the unlikely event someone decides they have something.

*and also finally record a SBCG4AP bonus update without something going wrong, jesus loving christ

I know a few of you wanted me to combine the videos instead of splitting them up by level, but really, if I combine them they end up being pretty long, even with editing. Since I don't have time to finish the 1-6 video today, I would have waited to post everything tomorrow, but I figured it's been long enough without an update.

Since the emulator slowdown makes the (already repetitive) music go all wonky, I have replaced the music with stuff from other games. (I thought you could turn off the music and leave the sound effects on, but you can't. Alas.) Hope you like my soundtrack choices!
